WARNING: SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
SPECIAL NOTE ON WINDY CONDITIONS
Never use the grillinwindy conditions.
If located in a consistently windy area
(oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a windbreak
will be required on the rear wall and both
sides of the grill. Windbreak construction
is the responsibility of the owner and must
adhere to the specified clearances listed
in the Installation Instructions.
As a high-performance gas appliance,
your grill requires significant amounts of air
to support the combustion process. Your grill
has been engineered to take air in through
the control panel area and exhaust
the combustion byproducts out through
the gap between the front and rear hoods.
Using your grill in windy conditions can
disrupt the proper flow of air through your
grill, leading to reduced performance or,
in certain severe cases, causing heat buildup
in the control panel area. This can lead
to problems such as burn hazards when
the control panel surfaces become too hot
to touch and, ultimately, failure of the wiring
and internal components if the conditions
persist.
NEVERUSETHE GRILLIN WINDY
CONDITIONS.Wind hitting the grill while
in use,especiallywinds blowinginto or

Steadyorgustywindscanpreventthe normalexhaustofhot gases.
Locateyourgrill awayfrom prevailingwindsand avoidgrilling in
windy conditions.
If you have a freestanding grill, it is best to
position the unit so the prevailing wind blows
into the front control panel, thus supporting
the proper airflow. Winds hitting the back
of the grill directly are the most likely to cause
problems, although wind blowing along the
hood gap can also be problematic.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong
(grounding) plug for your protection against
shock hazard and should be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. Do not cut or remove
the grounding prong from the plug.
If an extension cord is required to operate
the grill, use only a grounded cord approved
for outdoor use. Use as short of cord as possible
and avoid wet areas.
See all requirements in the provided Installation
Instructions.
